Samantha Figueroa Latif

a true pro. very experienced. you can’t go wrong with samantha. she really knows what she is doing and is experienced with the court system.

I met Samantha Latif during challenging child custody case. There was so much confusion and dishonesty from the opposing side. However, Samantha always kept her calm and navigated the situation to my best benefit. She is thorough and takes her time to listen and understand your concerns. During this stressful process, I always felt Samantha’s warm and sincere care. She was very honest and detailed in her explanation of the process and possible outcome. I felt that Samantha was always sensitive to my situation and listened to all of my concerns and needs. During the whole process, she was always available to me and I felt like my sister or some loved one to me with jurisdictional training and experience was fighting for my child’s best interest. Samantha knew more than my loved ones and during these dark times Samantha became my closest and dearest. Samantha has high standards of ethics and morality that stands out through her work. Samantha has great communication skills and her writing skills are effective, clear and well-reasoned. She is diplomatic, levelheaded, passionate for what she does and has a compassion for her clients. Samantha is respected by the judge. She knows how to propose her case to the judge, how diplomatically highlight wrongdoings of opposing side without disbarring. That says of Samantha’s high intelligence. Combination of Samantha’s strong knowledge of law and her humanly qualities hard to find these days. I hope, I never need an attorney again, however, Samantha will always be at my heart!

After numerous consultations with other lawyers, it became clear Samantha was the best choice for the job. Despite given a short period of time for preparation, she made sure that we were ready for anything that could happen, even addressing preparation for the future depending on the outcome of the hearing. Samantha answered all of our questions, was understanding, and laid everything out clearly. She was also transparent about what to expect financially and was conscious of trying to stay within our budget. Through her diligent and thorough preparation, we received the best possible outcome and I am so grateful to have found her.

I hired Samantha for a child custody case in a somewhat complicated situation. She was very thorough. She collected background information, asked a lot of questions, and made sure she understood all aspects of my case. She is organized, focused and a straight shooter when it comes to giving feedback about what to expect. She provides guidance when needed and makes herself available on urgent occasions. She is the best I've come across. She will fight for your case. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an honest, empathic and caring lawyer!!

Samantha did a phenomenal job in closing my case. It was open far longer than it should have been, but when I hired her it was finally over. Considering who we were dealing with on the other side, I felt protected in so many ways and Samantha made sure I fully understood every step of the way. I cannot recommend her enough, Samantha is an incredible lawyer and I’m grateful I had her in my corner.

Let me start by saying that I met Ms. Latif during a very difficult divorce, a deeply challenging time in my life and in the midst of pandemic. There were multiple items to work with including custody for the children, alimony, house sale and an ex husband who changed several attorneys throughout the process. In a situation like that, you do get to know your attorney pretty well. The sense of calm and reassurance that Samantha portrays was extremely helpful. At the same time she was always prepared, quick to respond and always on the spot with her legal advice. She is also a mother and a wife and can truly understand the intricacies of a divorce. To me that was maybe as important as the knowledge of the law. Nevertheless in a legal sense Samantha is an outstanding attorney that fought hard to get the best possible outcome for me and resolve this divorce in the fastest way. That fact itself saved me a lot of money. She is direct and will advise you so it works out for you. She is honest and grounded and doesn’t bill to play around with your case. In the world we live in, that is certainly a rare. I hope I don’t need a family law attorney again but if I do, there is no question in my mind who to call! Ms. Latif has my highest possible recommendation!!

Samantha is one tough cookie! Samantha was hired by me during a very challenging divorce. She obtained sole custody of my children for me/. I will Be forever in her debt. I would recommend her as a caring professional and advocate who knows how to play hard ball when needed. This cookie never crumbled!

Samantha is truly a first class lawyer. From the moment I met her till my case was finalized Samantha was attentive to details and responsive to my questions. Samantha's writing, legal arguments, and presence in the court room really set her apart from the other lawyers I encountered. Samantha helped guide me through one of the toughest parts of my life by explaining the legal process to me, what to expect next, and how to achieve the results I sought. The biggest compliment I can give is that while I know Samantha had other cases to handle, she made me feel as if I was her only client. Samantha will be my first call if I ever need a lawyer again. I highly recommend Samantha.

I don't know where to begin! Shopping for lawyer's in the beginning of this massive life change was hard enough. Luckily there are still good lawyer's that put their clients first, and I found her. Samantha took care of and listened to every want, need and concern I had. Samantha went above and beyond, which made it seem like she cared instead of it just being another case. Needless to say I came out successful, but only from the hard work Samantha put into my case. I only put 5 stars because I couldn't find the 10 star button. Thank you so much Samantha!

From where shall I start: Samantha made sure from the start to understand all aspects of my case and all background information that can help or influence what I'm trying to achieve. She is organized, focused, empathytic and fair. She gives great feedback about what to expect and what not to.. She replays her understanding to make sure she got everything right to prepare the case documents without going back and forth several times. Samantha provides guidance when needed and she makes herself available on urgent occasions. As long as she believes in your case and the fairness of your demands, I felt that it became her own case and not just as my lawyer. I'll always recommend Samantha and return to her for any follow ups I may need to do in the court, being sure that my case are in safe and trusworthy hands.
